General

Exploration well 34/2-2 is located a northwestern part of the Tampen Spur area. It was intended to be the first well to test the reflections below the Base Cretaceous (Kimmeridgian) Unconformity on a seismically defined, northerly trending west-northwest dipping fault block. The well was located near the apex of the structure at the Base Cretaceous level, but down-dip with respect to deeper stratigraphy. Primary targets were the Middle Jurassic Brent Formation and the Early Jurassic/Triassic Statfjord Formation. Secondary targets were possible Early Tertiary and Late Jurassic sandstones. Planned TD was 4300 m Sub Sea.

Operations and results

Well 34/2-2 was spudded with the semi-submersible installation Sedco 703 on 27 November 1980. Drilling proceeded to 513 m  where bad weather caused a three days wait-on-weather interruption. Resuming drilling the drill string parted and was lost in the hole. Fishing was attempted but the fish could not be retrieved. The well bore was technically suspended on 12 December 1980 as a dry well. Operations were resumed the same day as the re-entry 34/2-2 R.

Testing

No drill stem test was performed.
